explanation? anyone?

Post by seriousarsonist
Hi all

I've been doing a bit of over the border work ;) and have come across this rather curious anomaly. Does anyone have any thoughts as it's confusing the hell out of me. The only thing I can think is that we are about to get Counties, or translates or some other old 'coming soon' promise...

Zoom out one and it suddenly becomes all Gaeilge

This probably has to do with the Google maps integration. My observation is that some levels of information are not visible neither editable through the editor (another example is the POIs).

Yes that too... You'll have to forgive me, running at a few 100% above maximum for rather too long makes ones brain not work properly, sorry.

Looks like the 3 of us are in agreement on that then! lol
Have we any new data sources for the naming of roads? or are we still using the LPS?

Thank Arthur, that could explain it! It still seems like a weird thing to happen...

I've had to redo quite a bit of Monaghan town as it was either wildly incorrect or horribly out of date. I haven't got the small stuff done as I ran a bit short on time. As for roundabouts, I'll stick the city name in but never name the roads

I'd thought that too, so I checked all the other mapping resources available but none of them show the Gaelic only the English. So unless Waze has purchased something we don't know about or is using a really weird source then we'll just have to remain in the dark...

Maybe someone else can explain it
